On July 4, I spotted a Boston police K9 unit SUV with an expired inspection sticker. Luckily I found two Boston police officers, one who even had his badge on, hanging around a nearby trashcan. I asked them to ticket the vehicle. Predictably, they refused to uphold the law when it would affect one of their own.

The officers responded, “Is this for real?,” “It’s not my cruiser,” and “Go talk to the bosses.”

Please contact us if you received a ticket for an expired inspection sticker from the Boston police on Independence day on Facebook or by email here.
